[SOLVED] re(4) incorrect checksum

[Pietro Cerutti]

Hi lists,
ifconfig re0 -txcsum -rxcsum solved the problem....

Anyway, is this a bug in the driver or in the interface itself?

Thanx, regards

Hi lists,

FreeBSD gahrtop.localhost 6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #1:

I get checksum errors on every packet I send, example:

Checksum: 0x0bc5 [incorrect, should be 0x78fe (maybe caused by
checksum offloading?)]

I think this could be the cause of some web pages (e.g. Gmail in
standard view [html view works well]) not to be displayed.

I tracked down the problem to the re(4) driver just because wlan works good...

Any ideas?


Thanx,
